Very happy to have Henry Wu and Earl Jeffers debuting on MCDE Recordings this fall with their double Sider "Projections/Hi-Life"
Both Pablo Valentino and myself have been fans of their work, be it Henry and Earls solo stuff or the highly adventurous Yussef Kamaal project which Henry introduced 2 years ago. 
These guys take the London sound to a whole new level and we are very proud to have them doing their thing on our label.

@Blaq-Numbers (and sometimes Whyte Numbers) is back with its fourth artist EP and, this time around, they’ve landed a low-key 5-tracker from the increasingly in-demand @Jesse-Bru. It would seem every underground label on its come-up is after the Berlin-based producer and the man’s output is nothing short of impressive. 'How u really feel' rounds out another strong year for the artist whose discography already includes releases on Heart to Heart, Axe on Wax, Piff, and a full-length album on Audio Parallax.

The title track starts the EP off with an unsettling vocal sample before getting into a swinging drum machine groove alongside a distinctly cheerier, driving chord progression. This won’t be the only interesting juxtaposition on the EP as standout track 'Turn you loose' also begins with an unnerving vocal sample — albeit a much longer, darker one before turning into a hard grooving edit-style track that Bru is known for. Whether this works as intended will be left up to the listener.

The @Folamour remix flips the underlying chord progression and brings it to the front of the mix — amping up the energy a few notches in the process. Loose percussion and live drum samples contrast the beefed-up chords and, together, make for a remix that stays true to the original.

In the A1 groove of ST002 comes our premiere, and Leipzig-based Luvless' contribution to the release, "Vary In Colour". It's a trademark Luvless track in the best sense; a thick drum machine and synth bass combo serving as the foundation for ethereal grand piano riffs. The flow of the track is executed perfectly; building tension with strings and clever filtering, while percussion and hats layer in to really get the track moving. It's--in short--an anthemic track--rising nicely to a brief refrain before unleashing the full energy of the progression in the final third of the arrangement. "Vary In Colour" is purely bittersweet; at once beautifully uplifting and full of sad nostalgia. An ode to the joyous, fleeting moments in life and dance.
